Found an advert on www.zeewaterforum.info from chriszuid in which he was selling couple of corals. Among them where several Sinularia species. Not sure yet which ones he has. Asked him for pictures and prices.

Here is a shot I found of his aquarium, and the coral in question

The new Sinularia coral was a bit closed when making the pictures, hope that it’s just a temporary thing. These corals are said to be very hardy, so I don’t worry too much yet, but the nitrite level is at a point where it could damage Invertebrates and corals. Just keep an eye on it.

The soft coral has been in the aquarium for almost 4 months now and is the biggest coral currently there. He didn’t experience much since we bought him after the big rebuild. He only shifted a bit due to the capture of the Angelfish. He doesn’t seem to have grown a lot, but we got him pretty big already.

18 september we bought 3 rocks with 5 different kinds of coral. One of the rocks is located close to the soft coral and is filled with Xenia and mushrooms. Another one can be seen in the picture as well, the rock is filled with a Kenya tree and Cabbage leather coral.

Cleaned the inside of the coral since there was some garbage on it. Doesn't look to well now, but that will probably improve in time. Also the rocks on which it is attached keep moving apart from eachother. Might also be a problem.
